DVD.
This normally contains one or more movies and includes a menu
structure/menu design which allows you to choose a movie later on the CD or
DVD.
Disc types

DNS
The abbreviation DNS stands for Domain Name Service and refers to a
provider of Internet services that registers domain names for customers.
Domain
A domain is the website's Internet address. It consists of the name of the
Internet protocol (usually http://), the computer or network name (such as
www), the second-level domain (such as magix), and the top level domain (like
.com, .net).
Altogether we have: protocol://networkname.second-level-domain.top-level-
domain (such as "http://www.magix.com").
Domains are allocated by a country's so-called NIC (Network Information
Center). In Germany the DENIC is responsible for the release of domains.
Domain transfer
See CC. If you already have a domain, you can move it from your previous
provider to another provider.
Downmix
A method developed for audio technology to turn a Surround Sound recording
into a version with fewer channels. Most often (as is the case with MAGIX
Video easy) this will be a stereo version.
